Mark Cuban Launches Online Pharmacy

[ Edited ]

Its name is Cost Plus Drug Company and I went to the website and its prices are considerably lower than regular pharmacies. For those of you who take expensive medications, please check out the prices offered. One drug for a form of leukemia that sells for thousands per month is offered for $17.10.

 

I can't share a link but google Mark Cuban and the information will pop up. A few of my prescriptions are listed and I'm impressed.

I just read about this I think it's great if he can get consumers medications at very affordable prices. I wanted to see a list of medications available but in order to do so you need to create an account which I'm not ready to do at this point.

@Jordan2 I was able to see the list without creating an account.  Click on All Medications on the home page.

@JaneMarple    I hope inhalers are reasoonably priced because when I am in the donut hole, they want $160 or more for each one.  Who can afford that?  I will check this out.  Thank you.

Re: Mark Cuban's Launches Online Pharmacy

Okay, so I just looked and the three medications I take are listed. The prices are excellent, I found out about this accidentally, I have to wonder why we haven't heard anything about this on the news? Mark Cuban is a very smart man, I wonder how he is able to pull this off and still make a profit for himself?

I learned today via twitter and then googled the info. I saw that it was in Forbes and other publications. 

 

BTW 3 of my medications are listed as well.

It only opened for business two days ago. There are several articles online about his business model.

Wow ....  this is not what I would have expected from Mark, but I'm pleasantly surprised.    I want to look the site over later, so I signed up to be on their mailing list.  I will investigate it another day.
